What are you doing with the 16s?  I need a (very) cheap set for some winter tyres.

I fitted a set to my 05 GTI & they have made the car look so much better.When i first got the car it was on the standard 17'' monza alloys & people commented on how nice it looked but since fitting the edition 30 alloys everybody that has seen it says it looks so much better.I used the same wheel bolts off the Monza alloys not shure if your's will be ok.Have you got a mate with a gti who could remove a wheel bolt & you could check it against one of your's?.

The 18" Monza II and the Pescaras are straight swaps, so if the bolt off a 17" Monza will fit a pescara, they'll fit a monza ii.
